Abstract

This research aims to identify the trends and development and how technology supports education these days using the VOSviewer database. The purpose of the study is to appraise the research productivity on learning management systems (LMS) in India and to examine the various indicators like growth trajectory, annual growth rate, authorship trends, collaborative patterns, institutional collaboration, most prolific authors, top-ranked journals, top-ranked subjects, and top-ranked funding agencies. This study was conducted through scientometric analysis of Learning Management System (LMS) in the two decades from 2004 to 2023 retrieving the metadata in the Scopus database, VOSviewer mapping visualization application, and MS Excel spreadsheet for analysis. This study was expected to identify the research trends, collaborative patterns, novelty, and future education in LMS adaptability. The results show that Learning Management System Publication consists of 7 clusters with 3353 links and a total of 12025 Link Strengths through 178 items through the VOSviewer application. We examined how many articles have been published on the Learning Management System and connected with their problem areas using VOSviewer. This analysis can be aninitial point for further research related to LMS or mode of Distance Learning.
